An Cathach.
author by Columcille.publication date Mon Apr 12, 2010 16:47author address author phone

The Irish invented copyright laws.

When Columbcille secretly made an exact copy of his teacher's book he was ordered to hand the copy over to the teacher by a Brehon Law judge.

"Every cow owns its own calf" the judge said.

(The first ruling on copyright in history).

Columbcille went to war over this.

(The first copyright battle in history.)

He found himself exiled to Iona as a result.

The book is called "An Cathach".......meaning "The Battle".

Still on view in the Dublin national museum.
